March 23, 2004
WALNUT CREEK, Calif.- Washington sophomore right fielder Aimee Minor has been named the Pacific-10 Conference Softball Player of the Week for March 17-22, Commissioner Tom Hansen announced today.
Minor, from San Jacinto, Calif., led Washington to the Kia Klassic Championship with a .533 (8-for-15) batting average and seven RBIs in five games. She boasted a 1.133 slugging percentage, including a double, triple and two home runs. Against Texas A&M on March 18, Minor had two hits and helped the Huskies get off to a fast start as she singled and scored a run in the first inning. The run proved to be all the Huskies would need, as they beat the Aggies 5-0. Minor saved her best game of the weekend for the championship game against No. 1 Arizona. Minor led Washington to a 7-6 upset of the top-ranked Wildcats as she was 3-for-3, including a double and two home runs. She knocked in six of the Huskies seven runs, as Washington ended Arizona's 34-game win streak.
Minor and the Huskies continue their spring break tour in California with a 2 p.m. game at Cal State Northridge tomorrow.
